Zero Crazy!

Zero Crazy! is an activity that includes a pre-observation, 3 weeks of activities/messaging, and a post-observation. You have the whole semester to complete the activity and as long as we get everything back by the due date, we’ll send your team a $100 gift card! Nebraska schools will receive a bonus $50 for increasing seat belt use 5% or more. In the fall we take on seat belts and in the spring, it’s distracted driving. Observations are done to get a picture of the problem and again to see if your team made a difference. It’s crazy fun and your team gets rewarded!

TDS Cup points are awarded for completing both observations and returning them, plus you get your normal points when you complete activities and report them. Once everything is completed and returned your team gets a $100 gift card to celebrate your accomplishments. (Nebraska schools will receive a bonus $50 for increasing seat belt use 5% or more!)

Junior High Schools can participate!

Steps to Complete Zero Crazy!

1) Watch for the instruction email – All active schools will be emailed the observation forms and instructions.

2) Catch the Crazy! – Perform field observations at your school by observing real driving behavior and counting the Crazy drivers (pre-observation).

3) Shift the Crazy! – Do some mad, crazy activities around your school for a full three weeks to let these drivers know the risk they are taking.

4) Catch the Crazy! – Perform another field observation to see how many Crazy drivers you shifted (post-observation).

5) Pizza Party Like Crazy! – Return all your field pre- and post-observations to Teens in the Driver Seat and we’ll send you a $100 gift card so you can party it up like Crazy! Nebraska schools will receive a bonus $50 for increasing seat belt use 5% or more. We’ll also award your school 15 TDS Cup Points for completing the activity and send you back a report so you can see how your school did compared to other schools.

Who can participate?
